Earthquake!

I was rudely awakened at about 4 a.m. earlier this morning by a series of earthquakes. A 4.9, a 4.3, and a 4.5, with a series of smaller aftershocks to follow a few minutes later. The dogs were terrified as my little house swayed and the earth made it's noises. It was quickly over and everything was OK this time. However, I have just heard that several buildings have collapsed elsewhere.

I am getting ready to leave for another reservoir trip, so I will write more later. I just hope the bloody train station and railway lines haven't been damaged...
